Q,
I've seen enough with the black out reflectors to know I want that. However, after seeing this pic, I'm not sure about the taillights. Looks alot better on colors other than black.
J,
Yeah, I was gone 2 months, and I think my dad backed into the wall at work. Sure looks like concrete embedded in the paint. He needs to hurry up and get a new car so he can mess that one up instead. Maybe I should just take both sets of keys out here with me.

I think he wants the new M, that's what he had for a 2 year lease that just happened to end around the time I left for school. He drives it every now and then just so it doesn't sit. We also have an old Tahoe that was my last car, and his before.
I have thought about buying a more fun car out here for school next year and he can keep that, but I'm too attached haha. Also didn't want to try and deal with him on that.

Most likely the M37, but I'll be pushing for the 56. Knew I would as soon as it was said they would put the big V8 in there. He had the 35 sport last time, so I wouldn't expect him to spring for the higher model.
What do you guys think it would cost to get my rear bumper repainted, black the rear reflectors on it and the third brake light, and maybe spray tint the tails? I was thinking I'd go to Jose, as he is usually recommended. I have some chipping paint from an incident while I was away at college.


Go with the Black out look....it will look great !

Q,
I am still selling the Carbon Fiber one.....This one is the Original painted Nismo wing that I always kept.
I'm glad I didn't sell it too. I love the look the Z is taking on....It's like all Stealth.
I need to Tint the tails tho....anybody know who or where to get done ?
Thanks also Stephen.
Stu, was that done in paint? I say do whatever you think will look good. In the end, it's your car, your money, and thus your decision ultimately. I personally think blacking out that lower white part looks good, but then the FX is my favorite affordable SUV so it's probably going to look good to me regardless.

I used photoshop so I could do the lights at a lower percentage of darkness. If you look at it too close it doesn't look as good, just have to do a quick glance haha. I'm still not 100% sure what I want haha.
